Every child's head size and shape is different, so measuring is the most reliable guide. Small: 6-18 months - approximately 46-50cm head circumference Medium: 2-4 years - approximately 50-54cm head circumference How to measure: Use a soft tape measure and wrap it around the widest part of your child's head, just above the ears and across the forehead. Note the measurement in centimetres and match to the size guide above. We have done our best to provide accurate measurements, however if the size is not right for your child please see our size exchange and returns policy below. What if it doesn't fit? Every child's head shape and size is different. If the fit feels a little loose, some parents have found that folding the mesh ear coverings in by 1 - 2 cm can provide a more secure and comfortable fit.
